The Beginning of an Unforgettable Journey Through Love, Identity, and Time Brighton, 1957. Fourteen-year-olds Nick and Greg meet by chance after school, sparking a passion that will define the rest of their lives.
Gay life thrives in Brighton, but homosexuality is against the law and exists largely behind closed doors. Against this backdrop, Nick, introspective and curious, seeks to expand his world through literature and a widening circle of friends. Greg, battling denial and family pressures, embarks on a path fraught with self-destructive behaviour that threatens to consume him. Together, they face the challenges of a society steeped in secrecy and fear.
Nick & Greg is the first instalment of John Roman Baker’s acclaimed seven-part series. Over seven decades, the series follows their journeys from the innocence of youth through the swinging sixties, the liberation and turmoil of the seventies, the shadows of the AIDS crisis in the eighties, and into the reflections of later years. Set against the vibrant backdrops of Brighton, London, and Paris, Nick and Greg’s story is as much about place and time as it is about personal discovery.
